Description

The convective stability of compact tori is studied. The most stable pressure profiles are calculated numerically for plasmas of various shapes. The results are toroidal configurations with an aspect ratio approx.4. The corresponding adiabatic-equilibrium problem is solved numerically by inversion of variables
